Compare and Constrast:
My artwork was to create a logo for Ann Arbor, based of Sam Pemberton's logo for the City of Melbourne. Pemberton's logos were a lot more patterned, they all had a single theme that they stuck with.Mine consisted of some patterns and other designs on my basic logo shape. My logo designs show demographics of Ann Arbor, and Pemberton's designs were more geared towards businesses and organizations in Melbourne.
Personal Artist Statement:
My artwork is six logos to represent demographics of Ann Arbor; recycling, diversity, art, education, U of M, and the Huron River. All six logos use the same basic shape. They use a variety of colors. The colors help to show what each of the 6 logos represent.
